Biltong,
done properly.
Jan De Beer perfected our recipe in Brits, South Africa, more than fifty years ago. We still make it the same way, by hand, in Rocklea, Queensland.

“Been a customer of De Beer Meat Co since 2011. Their quality of the Biltong and boerewors is the BEST IN AUSTRALIA!! If you live outside of Brisbane they will post your order and you will receive it to your front door. Highly recommend.”
Francois Bensch · Google Review“Peri Peri biltong is amazing. Best I've had. Bought to try from local bottlo but will be making a bulk order online. Delish.”
Katie M · Google Review“Awesome biltong. Stopped in this morning as a recommended place to pick up some quality biltong and I wasn't disappointed. Got the trim Peri Peri and Original. Great consistency and flavour with friendly service. Will definitely be going back.”
